HP Designjet Z6100 Printer series - Manual (Page 154)

If you experience very slow progress while uploading the firmware file to the printer, the reason could be
that you are using a proxy server. In that case, try bypassing the proxy server and accessing the Embedded
Web Server directly.
● In Internet Explorer 6 for Windows, go to Tools > Internet Options > Connections > LAN
Settings, and select the Bypass proxy server for local addresses check box. Alternatively,
for more precise control, click the Advanced button and add the printer's IP address to the list of
exceptions, for which the proxy server is not used.
● In Safari for Mac OS, go to Safari > Preferences > Advanced and click the Proxies: Change
Settings button. Add the printer's IP address or its domain name to the list of exceptions, for which
the proxy server is not used.
Change the ink absorber
An alert appears on the printer front panel when the ink absorber is reaching its maximum saturation and
again when the absorber should be changed.
NOTE: The absorber can become excessively dry and fail to function correctly in climates where
the relative humidity is consistently below 25%.
CAUTION: A saturated or excessively dry ink absorber can cause severe damage to the
printheads and other parts of the printer. HP strongly recommends that you promptly change the
ink absorber when alerted.
